St. Lawrence's Church (Chinese: 聖老楞佐堂; Portuguese: Igreja de São Lourenço) is one of the oldest churches in Macau, China. It is located on Rua de São Lourenço, opposite Instituto Salesiano.
The church was first built before 1560 by the Jesuits. It was later rebuilt in 1846. The present church is a neoclassical structure with a yellow exterior. The interior of the church is decorated with ornate pillars and chandeliers.
Aside from it being a place of worship for Catholics in Macau, St. Lawrence's Church is also a popular tourist destination.
